Poll: Which couple would get the most dirty looks

Be advised that this is a public poll: other users can see the choice(s) you selected.

Which couple would get more dirty looks?

Which couple would get more dirty looks? A gay couple? An interracial couple? A couple with a man 40+ dating a college aged girl? None of these couples would be breaking any American laws but some people still would be uptight about it and give them dirty looks or make smart remarks.

The old dude and the schoolgirl. Interracial isn't a major issue anymore and gays have enough support that many won't look twice.
The vast majority, however, are still very stuck on age difference though, and it's prettyuch acceptable to judge a couple like that.

The older geezer. Every man over 30 would be staring and thinking "Good Man" , some of the women would stare, and might even be indignant.

We have far too much Bias that is still hurtful that is non-racial. People in Western Societies feel that it is not discriminatory to pick on Small people, Fat people, or Old people. It's laughed at and accepted, which is very wrong.

Unfortunately you probably would, but if I were you, take a run at them anyway. You only live once right?. Lol.

In all seriousness, I am fortunate that my child does not see colour. The reason being that he was raised with No Religious influence of any kind. WASPS - (white anglo-saxon protestants) are among the most racist today. They raise their children to look at the Asian, Black, Mullato with disfavour, based purely on intollerance, racial bias and complete ignorance.

It also jumps religious lines as well. Far too many WASPS look at Muslims as only terrorists, Jews as only greedy controlling people, and Asians as inherently bad drivers that make good duck. They happen to be white, and things that influence this indoctrination came only from The Church.

So with me being a black male 37 years old if I dated a young lady in her early 20s outside of my race I would get double the flack for it. And you know what I really wouldn't care.

More likely you'd get flack for the age and 10-15% added for race. I really doubt it would be double. In fact I think you would hear a lot of, "I don't have a problem with him being black, it's the fact he's old enough to be her dad," type comments.
